Text file linked to plotmker

I have notes typed into Word and then imported into plotmaker. How can I easily update them in plotmaker. As of now I have to go to each one and relink them to the specific file. Why can't I update them like I do the oither files?

Thanks,
Michele

Hmmm?

How did you import them?

I usually place Excel sheets, and they update automatically as they are changed in Excel. Opening them from PM starts Excel and all is well (except when Excel crashes or freezes )

I imported them just like you do anything else in plotmaker. I just tried it and it worked for me. I'm working on a file someone else started so maybe he attached them a differnet way.

WHAT? Am I missing something here? Can you link Word documents directly in Plotmaker? I thought it was a system that wasn't working too well, allowing you to only see one page of text (if that). Did it get fixed? Can you link more than 2-3 lines? Please share...
